Our mission is to transform the investment management industry by empowering young women through education and access to opportunities that can foster their successful careers in finance. GWI offers a variety of programs that provide participants with tuition-free finance education, internship experiences, and career placement support.

In our programs, we focus not only on academic training but also on mentorship and community support, providing a comprehensive system that empowers our participants.
